Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: very good +. Poetry Review Vo.66, No.1 A4, mimeo in yellow wraps with brown silkscreen design by Jennifer Cobbing. 66 pages, paginated, unsigned. Together with stapled National Poetry Centre Newsletter (7 printed pages in 4 sheets). As the editor's note explains in this volume: 'With this issue, the fifteenth under the present editor, Poetry Review assumes a new format which it is hoped will better accommodate the spatial forms of the wide variety of poems in today's poetry scene'. As such, the formal inventiveness of the new poetry required a more open, larger format of increased possibilities. In 1971, the British beat poet and critic Eric Mottram took over the editorial helm at Poetry Review and subsequently helped publish 20 issues over 6 years. During this period, Bob Cobbing and other small press avant-garde poets of the underground scene, took over the Poetry Society's building in Earls Court and breathed life into the periodical, as the concrete, visual and experimental poetry synonymous with the British Poetry Revival replaced modernist and lyric. During this period, and under the influence of Mottram (an associate of Burroughs and Ginsberg), the periodical was also notable for its publishing of American poets. For the patriotic Review, Mottram's approach to the Americans eventually resulted in his downfall. The saga is documented in the 2006 publication: Peter Barry, Poetry Wars: British Poetry of the 1970s and the Battle of Earls Court, Salt, 2006.
